mud, the street* were a black mass of
people. In whloh could be aeen many
colored dot*, three being the cap* of
all hues worn by the 6,000 students
gathered here to take part in tomor
row’s procession. On all the bouses (n
the city Sags are already displayed
nnd on most of them wreaths and
garlands add to the decorations.
Many of the shop window* are con
verted into small temples for the glo
rification of Bismarck. In these busts
of the ex-chancellor, surrounded with
suttaltfle decorations and Inscriptions,
are to bo seen. There Is hardly a house
•without candles and la mips in the
windows. Bombard's 'bridge Is Illumi
nated 'with 69,000 Jets of gas. The Dls-
oonto Bank was made brilliant with
12,000 gas Jets and the Deutsche Bank
displayed 10,000. On the ftathaus are
10,000 candles, on the Bourse 6,000,
while the Victoria hotel has 2,000 col
ored lamps. Roman candles were
burned on the roof of the Bourse for
two hours. Iu iiie centre of the inner
Alster a hundred barges are stationed,
from which the fireworks will be sent
off. The special features of this dis
play will be Bismarck and tbe Bfc-
anaroklnn coat of arms in brilliant
colors. 'More than 2,000 rockets will
be fired from the quays.
The police will stop all traffic after
7 o’clock tomorrow morning. At that
hour 4,000 students from the univer
sities will assemble In the Morweld

Muenster and Rostock; a hand from
Btrasburg, Stuttgart, Tuebingen and
Wursburg. All these delegations will
carry handsome banners.
Tne unorganized ■l-.tuenti, marching
live abreast, will bring up the rear. At
9:3# tonight the rein ceased and - te tlty
presented a fatrly-Hke spectacle. Mag
nesium lights on the eld-fashioned tow
ers give a magical brilliancy to the.sccne.
and so numerous are the Illuminations
that they create the impression that
the City la on fire. "The roadways ars
crowded with slght-»*era and In some
places are almost completely blocked, and
especially so In and nround the Zoologi
cal gardens, whero the students are hav
ing a kommers. Fire, works of all colors
are being set off and the glittering pyro
technics, with their showers of sparks of
various hue*, form a beautiful apectacl*
ever the Alster Basin.

Frledrlchsruhe, March 31.—A beautiful
sunny afternoon brought .thousands of
people to the castle g*tee,where they
vainly sought admittance to" the park tn
the hope of catching sight of the ex-
chanrfllob.' Dr. Ohry sender, In view of
the great crowds that hava recently
thronged the park, was' firm In his decis
ion .not to admit the public. Prince Bis
marck did not take his oustomnry walk
today, but had a short stroll around the
park to gather atrengtb for tomorrow.
Palisades have been erected behind the
park to prevent marauders from Intrud
ing upon the privacy ot the ex-chancellor.

lies, arrived last night and Dr. Bcbwen-
Dlnger came today.
A heavy twin storm, which came up sud
denly at 2 o’clock, mad* the roads ot

the ex-chancellor's admirer* remained,
steadfastly planted at the castle gates.

weather prevented Imposing decorations,
but did not prevent the festive character
of the occasion from being Impressed up
on tbo crowds ot visitors. Most ot tn*
houses displayed flags and tbe wine

lands. The trains were orer-crowded and
even, then tbo accommodations supplied
by the railway management proved Insuf

The tribunes erected at the Nlederwald
were occupied by military, singing and
athlstlc societies of the Rhine valley,
while other accommodations had been

war history during Bismarck's regime.
The great chancellor, he said, at all times
had an eye to the development of Ger
many. The orator showed how the
Fmnco-Rutslan war had been forced

It* homage. This proposal was received
with Immense applause.

ANTI-BISMARCK MEETING,
fit. Louis, Mo., March 31.—The so
cialists of this city tonight hckl an
antl-Biamsroklan mass meetln at Cen
tral Turner Halle. The principal
speaker was Mr. Adolph Hopner, ed
itor of the Tagcblatt. In substance he
baIA:
•Tomorrow Germany wHl be ablaze
with the enthusiasm of servile wor
shipers of a man who, within the space
ot ten years. Inspired three wars, en
tailing misery, mutilation and death
to hundreds of thousands ot people.
This apotheosis Is the last debt to be
paid to ths man who spent a life
time In aggrandising the house of
Hohenzollern, washing his conscience,
spurring that ardor that bis flatterers
generously call genius, sacrificing per
sonal honor to that end. As a people
the nation never existed within hi*
view except as a means to glorify the
dynasty and rivet its power.
••In murderous wars has thla man
of 'blood and Iron' attained success.
Certain closest of American* are Bla-
inarcka on a lower scale and their
methods art reduced copies of their
model. The Carnegie* and the Pun-
mans and the executive officers who
uphold them are tn kinship to the
octogenarian smith who welded united
Germany, but at 'blood and Iron'
killed German Idealism, Whose frag
ments of forfinor pea pee and good
wlU only remain to us In song and
•lory, so will the Imitators In free
America drain freedom of everything
but its name, unless the people, not
the nation, take that power which be
longs to them and mold their own det-
tlnlM.”
The hall wse filled and tbe half *-trn
spaockas la German were le-<dly ejp’en.'.
ed. A Bismarck celebration was *:«c In
prosrees of the Germanic theatre and was
very enthusiastic.
Baltimore, Md., March 31,—ordinal
Gibbons preached at the Cati-edral
today to a large congregation from
the text: "Which of you shall mnvlct
me?" His eminence had In mlid ex-
Priest Slattery and the riots H the
South. He said In part:
"The Catholic church la Jeal/us of
the honor and moral rectitude of her
clergy. It is her constant alii that
they should walk In lnnooenc) and
blamelessness of life. Whenever any
of her clergy is known to fcavi con
tracted any degrading habits incom
patible with his saored calling he Is
withdrawn from the active .pursuits of
the ministry until >he has given marks
of' reformation. The ohurch las too
much reverence for God; she las too
much respect for you; she tag too
much respect for the clergy them
selves, to suiter any unrworthj priest
to minister at her altar.
"We find It very hard to please our
eretnles. They tare very lncondstent.
If we were to retain a reienerate
clergy in tbe exercise of th> public
ministry they would point th> finger
ot scorn at us and say: ‘See low low
Is the moral standard of the Tatbolle
clergy.’ I -we dismiss one cf them
they will forthwith pick hUn ip from
the gutter and receiver tbl> fallen
minister in open arms and 1-ad him
about the country like some strange
animal and exhibit him to th< public
gaze. He Is sure of course, to malign
and misrepresent the ohurch, Drwliat
man ever spoke kindly of the mother
church he hid insulted and dishon
ored? They affect to believe tils man
In bis fallen degradation."
His eminence closed with ai appeal
to his hearers to treat calumsators of
the ohurch with moderation and In
no case strike hack at her emmles.
The Emperor’s Remarks Were Un
guarded and Hade in tho Heat
of Indignation.

the envoys of other govurnmenns, but
oven the majority of nhe Prusslau- min

The German press hag been equally

denials ith-n: he qpoke dtreddjr of a clls-
sortutloo and a'he summoning of Gen.

They all come, however, from the same
sources as the familiar corrections of
the emperor's indiscreet speeches. Tha

The government had a project for
a loan hank calculated to *M the agri

dsbste on ih* aoptoprtaltons thstr at
tacked Dr. Koah. the Imperial bank’a
president as s gold bug without knowl
edge of agricultural need* and without
agrarian aspirations. They said the
bank ought to be nationalized. Koch
told them he would not alter the bank’a
poiloy and he declined to resign his
offics. He aJso disparaged their effort#
to get together another International
silver conference. The ministers took
no part In the debate.
